Deshuan Watson joined us on SportsTalk Thursday night to discuss the upcoming NFL Draft. Watson is confident he will hear his name called early, but so far no team has tipped its hand. You can check out the Watson interview and get a few of the highlights from his interview below.

Deshaun Watson

He said he’s enjoying the process and isn’t really nervous at this point. Just taking things as they come.

He said he’s not focused on what the mock drafts are saying but he’s not oblivous to what they are saying. He’s on social media and see what is being said and written. Noted that it changes almost every day.

Watson said he’s talked to a lot of teams and representatives. He said the funny thing is that a lot of people that have gone through the draft already have told him a lot of times the team you didn’t talk to as much drafts you.

Watson said he’s had about two or three workouts and he felt they all went very well.

Watson will be in the Green Room in Philadelphia Thursday. He said he’s hoping and praying for the “quick exit” but he’s prepared for anything.

Comments

Du-shawn’s been smoking crack, laced with heroin, soaked in alcohol. He’s been listening to the Clemson Radio network on 97.1 ESPN radio at 4pm. That goob, “sturge” and his entire radio program humps this boys leg so much he should be covered in DNA. He was a good QB in an over rated ACC conference, but the NFL boys, as well as the Heisman voters, saw some short comings that’s going to affect this guy’s draft number. He’s not going to be happy and neither is the Picken’s U establishment.

You want find a bigger “non Clemson” fan than me…I call them “Tillman Tech”….
However D Watson IS Clemson football….he made their whole team better…offense spoke for itself but he made their defense better …..he was clutch….opponents at times pressed on offense because of what Watson could do…Watson was by far the biggest reason for their success. He was as good a college QB as I watched in my lifetime…
Dabo knows it’s back to “Taj Boyd era” of Tillman Tech football when Watson leaves….would not be surprised if Dabo was the source of some of these rumors of Watson deficiencies surrounding NFL draft…Just so Watson will not overshadow Dabo & Clemson.
I could hear Dabo now …”Don’t get me wrong….DeShaun was good…heck….great! but…
we had to coach him up ….we’ll find somebody even better than Watson to lead this team…Watson is not Clemson football….I am …we are….You seen my Waffle House menu? Me on my headsets …over there on sideline….calling the team over during timeouts so my assistants can coach em?!…THAT my friends, is Clemson football….NOT DeShaun Watson!”

Boyd did not have the caliber defense playing with him as we have now. Sorry to bust your bubble “Cockytop” but Clemson will have the best defense in America in 2017. Also, was Deshaun on defense when we beat down Ohio State 31-0 or when we hung 56 on your tail?

I know Chad. The best team in the country for the better half of 2 seasons and they are still coming up with junk to talk about. I try to have a rational conversation most of the time but it is often difficult. This story is about Deshaun Watson and his process to draft night. Country thinks he will be a bust in the NFL, whats new? Carolina fans have literary ran out of things to troll Clemson with. I mean the final straw was when we Rolled Alabama, Carolina’s big brother. The list goes on and on. I mean what’s next, the diamonds in the National Championship rings are too small. Country mentions that he was a good qb in a overrated ACC. Country, what about Alabama (35-31)? Maybe they should move to the overrated ACC. What about Ohio State (31-0). Should Ohio State move to the overrated ACC? What about Oklahoma? (37-17). With that logic Carolina should move to the SoCon. Is there a bigger Idiot that Country? Please try to have a conversation instead of making yourself look bad.

It was a down year for every one Chud.
But anyway, I know which button to push to get you started

Look, I hope, as an adult, that a child like Dushawn does very well in the NFL. He’s a kid. He’s worked hard. He tries hard. He’s earned some respect. But, he has shortcomings that just don’t fit in the NFL. This isn’t my fault for bringing this up. I know he’s Picken’s U savior and all, but, lets’ be real.

So, now that, that’s in the books, Can I tell you I told you so?
Though, he drafted higher than I expected, he was still the 3 rd QB to go. In other words, he was the worst of the best. What was left over.

I wish him well, and Maybe he can get Clowney a winning football team. Even though Clowney was better at his job, than Watson was at his, This is like the 4th or 5th year in a row, that a SEC Defensive player has been the #1 Draft pick
